Win some Second Son X Adidas..............



WIN A FREE PAIR OF ADIDAS ZX700s DESIGNED BY SECOND SON!
Last month adidas invited us to design eight pairs of kicks using their 'mi originals' system as part of our first ever fashion show. Now two of our colourways have been made available for purchase at the adidas Originals store in Earlham Street, central London, along with an exclusive free Second Son logo tee for each customer (while stocks last). Two colourways of the classic adidas ZX700 model are available: one is a clean black and yellow pair inspired by our Weather Pattern print, while the other is a fresh turquoise and white colourway designed to match our Cosmic Shit tee.

So if you like what we've done and want to order a pair, just head down to the adidas store at 9 Earlham Street, WC2H 9LL, and speak to a member of staff. Your shoes will be made specifically for you and will be delivered within four weeks along with your free t-shirt.

And to celebrate, we're spreading the love by giving away a FREE PAIR of the kicks. To enter the competition, just email us at competition@second-son.com with your answer to the following question:

Would you like a free pair of trainers?

A) Yes.
B) No thanks, I only wear penny loafers.

The winner will be selected from a random draw. Competition ends on Friday 20th November 2009. Good luck peeps!

"To be born a woman has to be born, within an allotted and confined space, into the keeping of men...this has been at the cost of a woman's self being split into two...she must continuously watch herself..and so she comes to consider the surveyor and the surveyed within her as the two constituent yet always distinct elements of her identity as a woman. Men look at women, women watch themselves being looked at...her own sense of being in herself is supplanted by a sense of being appreciated as herself by another...thus she turns herself into an object - and most particularly an object of vision; a 'sight'."
